Hell of a double bill in the cinema!

 

I would guess that changes

 

That is the fundamental problem. The people who use AI look at it as a solution to a problem, which is why it is so popular in mundane jobs or with students. It isn't supposed to be how George R.R. Martin finishes his book or they find a great way to add a season of The Wire.

 

Hahahaha!!

 

Returning is kinda his whole thing

 

fine by me honestly

 

Baltimorons was a little sappy but good

 

For the latter, most imdbcore. City of God, American History X, Fight Club

 

maybe just sample sale but I feel like Reddit is always talking about Law Abiding Citizen for some reason like it's a real movie

Donnie Darko and Eternal Sunshine were also always movies for film nerds but are still movies where you see for 16 and they're the coolest movie ever

 

4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 2 Days seemed like such a monumental moment in cinema, but the Romanian New Wave never got the attention that the Korean New Wave did.

When people were making best-of-the-decade lists in 2009 Nolan's Memento was always popping up but I never seem to see it talked about the same way.

 

One of my coworkers shows Memento in his psych class and it blows the kids fucking minds. The more I think about it, we are showing some solid movies across the board.

The official film teacher shows Godfather 1+2, Blazing Saddles, No Country, There Will Be Blood, Moonlight, Prisoners (havent seen that), The Exorcist and more

I show most of Nosferatu & Caligari, Night of the Hunter, Psycho, Night of the Living Dead, Halloween, Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Scream plus Dazed and Confused, The Breakfast Club and (ehhhh) Perks of Being a Wallflower. If I have time I show Hoop Dreams

My english class watches Stand By Me. Juniors watch Shawshank and Doubt.

 

Can't recommend Prisoners enough. One of my top 10 favorite films.

 

Memento is GOAT

 

Great movies

 

I feel like (thankfully) “Boondocks Saints” was a huge movie in the 2000s and fell off pretty hard with younger generations.

 

The Alabama Solution is really good.

 

A lot of awards films would make the list, but one I kept thinking about was Beasts of the Southern Wild. So much buzz and attention, but now you almost never hear people talk about it.

 

I feel like that’s almost every Netflix movie, even the ones that end up on top 10 lists and awards consideration.

 

Do you mean Beasts of No Nation?

 

presuming zilla meant that but the movie morrissey mentioned is one of the best examples of this

 

True but it’s not a Netflix movie hence why I asked Patrick.

 

yep! Got the two confused. But Morrisey’s correct!
